For your infor mation
Please note that this manual applies to all models and all equipment, includ-
ing  options.  Therefore,  you  may  find  some  explanations  for  equi pment  not
installed on your vehicle. 
All  specifications  provided  in  this  manual  are  current  at  the  t ime  of  printing.
However, because of the Toyota policy of continual product improvement, we
reserve the right to make changes at any time without notice.
Depending on specifications, the vehicle shown in the illustrat ions may differ
from your vehicle in terms of equipment.
Approximately  five  hours  after  the  engine  is  turned  off,  you  ma y  hear  sound
coming from under the vehicle for several minutes. This is the  sound of a fuel
evaporation leakage check and it does not indicate a malfunctio n.
A  wide  variety  of  non-genuine  spare  parts  and  accessories  for  T oyota  vehi-
cles are currently available in the market. You should know tha t Toyota does
not  warrant  these  products  and  is  not  responsible  for  their  per formance,
repair,  or  replacement,  or  for  any  damage  they  may  cause  to,  or  adverse
effect they may have on, your Toyota vehicle.
This vehicle should not be modified with non-genuine Toyota pro ducts. Modi-
fication with non-genuine Toyota products could affect its perf ormance, safety
or  durability,  and  may  even  violate  governmental  regulations.  In  addition,
damage or performance problems resulting from the modification may not be
covered under warranty.
Also,  remodeling  like  this  will  have  an  effect  on  advanced  safe ty  equipment
such  as  Toyota  Safety  Sense  P  and  there  is  a  danger  that  it  wil l  not  work
properly  or  the  danger  that  it  may  work  in  situations  where  it  should  not  be
working.

The installation of a mobile two-way radio system in your vehicle could affect
electronic systems such as: 
● Multiport fuel injection system/sequential multiport fuel injection system
● Toyota Safety Sense P (if equipped)
● Dynamic radar cruise control system (if equipped)
● Cruise control system (if equipped)
● Anti-lock brake system
● SRS airbag system
● Seat belt pretensioner system
Be sure to check with your Toyota dealer for precautionary meas ures or spe-
cial instructions regarding instal lation of a mobile two-way radio system.
The vehicle is equipped with sophisticated computers that will  record certain
data, such as:
• Engine speed / Electric motor speed (traction motor speed)
• Accelerator status
• Brake status
• Vehicle speed
• Operation status of the driving assist systems
• Images  from  the  front  camera  (available  only  when  certain  safe ty  sys-
tems  are  activated,  which  varies  depending  on  the  vehicle  specifica-
tions).
The  recorded  data  varies  according  to  the  vehicle  grade  level  and  options
with which it is equipped.
These  computers  do  not  record  conversations  or  sounds,  and  only  record
images outside of the vehicle in certain situations.
●Data Transmission
Your  vehicle  may  transmit  the  data  recorded  in  these  computers  to Toyota
without notification to you.

For safety and security
■Enhanced Roadside Assistance
Enhanced  Roadside  Assistance  adds  GPS  data  to  the  already
included warranty-based Toyota roadside service.
Subscribers can press the “SOS” button to reach a Safety Connec t
response-center  agent,  who  can  he lp  with  a  wide  range  of  needs,
such  as:  towing,  flat  tire,  fuel   delivery,  etc.  For  a  description  of  the
Enhanced  Roadside  Assistance  se rvices  and  their  limitations,
please  see  the  Safety  Connect  Te rms  and  Conditions,  which  are
available  at  Toyota.com  in  the  United  States,  Toyotapr.com  in
Puerto Rico and Toyota.ca in Canada.
Important! Read this informatio n before using Safety Connect.
■Exposure to radio frequency signals
The Safety Connect system installed in your vehicle is a low-po wer
radio transmitter and receiver. I t receives and also sends out radio
frequency (RF) signals.
In  August  1996,  the  Federal  Communications  Commission  (FCC)
adopted RF exposure guidelines with safety levels for mobile wi re-
less  phones. Those  guidelines  are   consistent  with  the  safety  stan-
dards  previously  set  by  the  following  U.S.  and  international
standards bodies.
● ANSI (American National Stand ards Institute) C95.1 [1992]
● NCRP  (National  Council  on  Radi ation  Protection  and  Measure-
ment) Report 86 [1986]
● ICNIRP  (International  Commission  on  Non-Ionizing  Radiation
Protection) [1996]
Those standards were based on comprehensive and periodic eval-
uations of the relevant scienti fic literature. Over 120 scientists, engi-
neers,  and  physicians  from  unive rsities,  and  government  health
agencies and industries reviewed  the available body of research to
develop the ANSI Standard (C95.1).
The design of Safety Connect complies with the FCC guidelines i n
addition to those standards.
